A rare, highly prominent 1.61 hectare (4 acre) site fronting the Straiton junction of the Edinburgh bypass, offered with an existing 6-bedroom house plus kennels and cattery. The plot is zoned as Strategic Employment Land in the Midlothian Local Development Plan 2017, making it suitable for a wide range of commercial uses or owner-occupier industrial operations. Immediate commercial neighbours include Straiton Retail Park with major brands and modern access roads.
The site benefits from excellent transport links and visibility from a major bypass, fast broadband and strong mobile signal — practical assets for logistics, light industrial or mixed commercial schemes. There is no reported flood risk, and the surrounding landscape provides a semi-rural backdrop that may suit well-designed commercial development.
Important practical notes: tenure is recorded as unknown and the site includes existing buildings (house, kennels, cattery) that will require inspection and likely refurbishment or demolition. The wider area is recorded as very deprived, which may affect workforce, grant eligibility and planning considerations. Prospective buyers should carry out full due diligence on planning constraints, access, services and any uplift obligations before committing.
